Alice Kate;

Here is the information that MG gave you on your last post. I have highlighted the pertinent part here.

Hi Alice Kate.

This is from the LA department of mental health.

For free, confidential mental health information, referrals to service providers, and crisis counseling at any day or time, call our 24/7 ACCESS CENTER at 1-800-854-7771.

I know you care about him, but he will have to go in willingly for help if he wants it. If he chooses not to get help there is nothing you can do. I would also be very careful. You can never be sure that someone won't harm you. He is unstable right now and you need to protect yourself. Maybe meeting him in public places would be a good idea for now if you continue to see him.

If he refuses to get help then I would consider breaking ties and moving on. I really think you may be in danger right now. Please be very careful.

Hugs,
MG
I sincerely hope you take this information to heart.
I wish you the best. It may be helpful for you to look into naranon or alanon meetings too. Learn to detach with love, and recognize what belongs to you, and what it *his* part in his recovery. You didn't cause it; you can't control it; and you can't cure it. So, please don't get sucked down into the vortex of addiction hell. It happens before you know it.

Please let us know how it goes, and how you are doing. We care.

Shalom!
